Issues of treatment and rehabilitation patients with pelvic's inflammatory diseases are still remain highly relevant, so relapses and chronic inflammation processes are worsen the prognosis for generative function in women, which is an important social and economic problem in modern time. Purpose of the study. Monitoring the effectiveness of therapeutic measures of rehabilitation step in chronic forms of this disease. Materials and methods. We examined 110 patients who handled to the clinic for women with complaints about the absence of pregnancy, of which a survey group was formed. The duration of pelvic inflammatory desiase (PID) in patients of the examination group did not exceed 2 years. The age of the patients was 25-35 years old. In patients of the examination group, according to clinical, laboratory and ultrasound ultrasound, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy and morphological findings, PID was verified including the presence of chronic endometritis and other endometrial pathology (for example, endometrial polyp, simple endometrial hyperplasia). Results. The rehabilitation stage of treatment (6 months) in patients with PID was aimed at restoring the morphofunctional potential of the tissue and eliminating the effects of secondary injuries, which include the restoration of hemodynamics and activity of the endometrial receptors. This stage of treatment is extremely important, especially for reproductive disorders. At this stage, the patients of the examination group were given hormone therapy and treatment with vasoactive drug (dipyridamole). The obtained results testified to the significance of the restoration of the vascular blood flow of the uterus and the functional layer of the endometrium. Conclusion. Rehabilitation therapy in patients with PID was primarily aimed at restoring the functional ability of the endometrium. Hormone therapy was a priority role, but at modern time, role of the vasoactive drugs that affect the blood flow in the uterus is emphasized. One of these drugs is dipyridamole, which contributes to the formation of collaterals (bypass paths) in ischemic zones. The results indicate that at the end of the 6-month rehabilitation phase, than of a three-layer endometrium was diagnosed (according to ultrasound on day 8-10 of the cycle) in 85 (77.27±4.00%) patients in the examination group.

The environment in which nurses and rehabilitation therapists practice is rapidly evolving, resulting in changes in the skill sets and competencies required of new graduates. Evidence-based practice models, for example, require that entry-level nurses, physical therapists, and occupational therapists have the ability to identify, locate, and critically appraise research findings. This paper will describe curriculum-integrated, for-credit information literacy programs developed by the authors in collaboration with faculty members from the Schools of Nursing and Rehabilitation Therapy at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. The short-term goal of these programs is to teach undergraduate and graduate students advanced search strategy skills and critical appraisal techniques that will enable them to explore the implications of their literature findings. The long-term goal is to graduate practitioners who not only will have the skills to practice evidence-based health care but also will participate in scholarly activities and thus contribute to the evidence base in their disciplines.

Objective. Although evidence and guidelines recommend appropriate rehabilitation from the beginning of diagnosis in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), there is a lack of data addressing the utilization of rehabilitation therapies for these patients in practice. The aim of this study is to investigate the rate of rehabilitation therapy utilization over time in patients with PD using a nationwide cohort in Korea. Methods. Patients were identified using the registration code for PD in the program for rare, intractable disease from the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort database, which consists of 979,390 Korean residents. Data were divided into four periods: 2004–2006, 2007–2009, 2010–2012, and 2013–2015. We assessed the utilization of rehabilitation therapies and the associated patient characteristics. Results. The numbers of patients with PD were 384 in 2004, 855 in 2007, 1,023 in 2010, and 1,222 in 2013. The numbers of physiatrist visits per person were 0.58, 0.96, 1.97, and 2.91, in the respective periods. Among the patients, 35–40% had claims for physical therapy, 16–19% for occupational therapy, and 4–6% for swallowing therapy. There were no remarkable differences between these rates between the study periods. Sex, age, income, disability, and levodopa-equivalent dose were significantly associated with the utilization of rehabilitation therapy. Conclusion. This study demonstrated that the rate of rehabilitation therapy utilization did not change remarkably in patients with PD from 2004 to 2015 in Korea although the number of physiatrist visits increased dramatically. The present evidence and guidelines may have not been adequately integrated into clinical practice during the period of study. Additional efforts may be warranted to provide adequate rehabilitation therapies in clinical practice for patients with PD.
